China condemned Taiwan President Lai for praising former US President Trump and accused him of selling out Taiwan to foreign powers to promote separatism, calling his efforts doomed to fail.
- On Oct 8, China's Taiwan Affairs Office accused Taiwan President Lai Ching-te of `prostituting` himself after he praised US President Donald Trump and called his remarks `nonsense`.

- US-Taiwan arms ties continue while Beijing pursues reunification, with the PLA expected to be ready for potential invasion by 2027 as Taiwan buys US weapons despite last month's $400 million aid denial.
